I never remembered EQ to look like that... The models were always pretty decent, but nothing ever like that... That's wicked

Low poly count wings, very disappointing. Great textures and bumpmaps but you can see the wireframe design they used...

Oh wait, thats what people say about WOW yet I can see the same thing in these... look how all the wings cut \_/ instead of smooth curves like a natural wing would be (skin pulled taught between bone).

HAY GUYS LOOK AT ME IM NOT AS RELEVANT NOW THAT PREPARED IS 44 BOXING BUT I CAN DRAW FROM MY EQ EXPERIENCE TO TRY TO DRAW ATTENTION TO MYSELF!!!!

Seriously Sam - that is kind of cool but Prepared is 44x level 61+ - you only have 90 days of RAF.... I want to see some epic 20+ boxing!

I'm behind what can I say.

On the other hand in about a week all my new computers should be online and then no more lag ....

There are two ways to do things. Lets say build a car.

One guy jumps in and builds a car in one month.

The other guy takes 3 months to build a machine that builds cars.

Who gonna win in the long run?

Hmm, I was going to reply with "EQ is still shit," but those dragons actually look pretty sweet :)

PS: imo, this was hardly an e-peen waving thread, you don't have to bring the hate in here.

I read the comments in the thread and the people there were like "meh reused over sized models, nothing new." I go with what they say.

Im setting things up so that I minimize key presses as much as is possible within the rules. Knowing that over the next few years I will be killing tens of thousands of mobs or more.

Im out of the EQ loop right now but it looks like the Gods are being invaded from Discord or something and there are some really nice battles to be watched or something.

Except he is pumping out a Bugatti Veyron (or insert epic car of your choice here) in one month and you are taking three months to make a solid sports car, perhaps a Porsche 911. But no Veyron.

This isn't tortoise and the hare.

That's a rebuttal. People are allowed to defend themselves. Also, please recognise that he did not say that in a way to "buff" himself. The way it was said, if there are any other EQ players on these forums, it is on behalf of them too. People were saying EQ is shit, this is Sam defending EQ by going "but look, they are improving themselves."

He didn't actually say, "EQ is getting better again, therefore you are wrong and I'm still leet, blow me!" You just wish he did to give you an excuse to rag on him, and thus saw it that way.

And before you (or someone says) but he used "not counting" which is a quote from another thread aimed at him (might have even been me quoted there) so of course it is personal, basically the only places people have said EQ is shit has been in threads flaming Sam, so of course any quote of "EQ is bad" is going to stem from an attack on Sam.

PS: And if it was me quoted, that wasn't aimed at Sam, it was aimed at all EQ players, then I followed up with a stab at Sam.

I just dont know why WoW is SO much more popular then EQ, sure its not like 62 Times better. Ya wow does some things right but EQ does a lot of things right also, and has just so much history, and lore, and is more complex well whatever.

I'm going to go with 'better is subjective' 'people have different tastes' 'the best mmo is the one you like the most'

In all honesty, Hello Kitty Island Adventure is by far the best MMO out there. The lore is solid, quests are fun, the character customisation is amazing, it's just an all-round good game. WTB beta key plox :D
